Re: Regarding <G13> - placement of the tetra by the human player.

Unless a team built their robot precariously to receive only human player tetras - I can't see the use in the human player. You can get almost twice as many tets from the auto loaders in a given time span. Then as you said compounding the penalty risk of touching the bot. The standing still time factor while becoming an easier target. I don't understand why they handicapped the human player so bad. The only way I can see salvaging the usefulness of the HP is if they let them load (2) tets at a time. Otherwise these HP's will simply help push the bot's to/from the field and focus on NOT getting off that pad.

Just my opinion...
